LEGO Questions & Answers

I found this TIE Pilot helmet in some used stuff I bought. I thought I heard that people collect them, but is it really worth trying to sell it? Is it only marginally more value than a good one?

Does anyone know what minifigure (from the series ones) these feet belong to? I took them all off the bases to clean them, and can’t seem to figure it out.

I’m about to go on a spending freeze and won’t be buying any new sets until Father’s Day. I am making one more purchase and think it would be best to pick up a set that might be retired by the summer. I’ve been reading the retirement speculation thread, but haven’t seen talk about any of these sets except for the train. Which is the following do you think will retire in the next six months? -Old Fishing Store -Winter Train (I’d prefer to buy this next winter but worry it won’t be around). -Parisian Restaurant (I assume this will be the next modular to retire). Thanks for looking into your crystal ball. I’ve only been building for a year and I’m trying to learn th…

Right so I've only tested the water a little in the last month since I started 'investing' in Lego. I've picked up a few freebies from Amazon and a few random cheap bits on Facebook market place too. Just wanted some advice on which of these sets I should keep hold and which I should try and shift more quickly. 75155: Rebel U-wing Fighter 21306: The Beatles Yellow Submarine 71016: Kwik-E-Mart Speed Champions Lego Ferrari F1 Lego Speed Champions 75881 2016 Ford GT & 1966 Ford GT40 Building Set 2 of Speed Champions 75878 "Bugatti Chiron" Building Set LEGO DC Comics 70902 Batman Movie Catwoman Catcycle Chase Batman LE…

Complete newbie here so please bear with me. I recently acquired a lot of Legos. I'm trying to sort through the legitimate ones from the fakes. I understand there are basically three versions of standard head moldings. The one with the "tri-bars" in the recessed part confuse me. I cannot find the Lego logo on this type of head. The logo is pretty easy to spot on the original head mold and the newer recessed ones. Is there a logo on this "tri-bar" type of head? If so, where can I find it? I even brought out the microscope for this one but no joy! Thanks for any help. Greg

Second post so I hope I'm not repeating a question but I've searched the forums about verifying short legs with no luck. The larger legs all have the Lego logo on them but I can't find a logo on the short legs. Do they have a visible logo? Also, I've been searching the web for a data base or description on how to identify Lego pieces. There is a lot about figures in general but not specifically how to identify. I probably just missed it somewhere but I'd sure appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

I don`t know how much this set is and just want some clarification.

My son has $100 to spend at the Lego store tomorrow. He asked me to research what he should buy. My recommendation was going to be one of the Creator cars - Ferrari F40, VW Beetle, or Mini Cooper. He likes to build more than anything which is why I thought a higher piece count, challenging build would be better than anything else. Is there anything else you would recommend? And of the three Creator sets, which do you like the best?

Can anybody tell me what minifgure this face print comes from? Thanks

does anyone know ow much these lego are worth ? , thanks

Hello, I recently purchased this item at a local thrift store, and am having some difficulty determining what, if anything is missing. The outer box is damaged, but the contents are largely sealed. After a quick inspection, I have the following: 9V Train Motor (Sealed Box) Black Train (Sealed Box) Caboose (Sealed Box) Freight Wagon (Sealed Box) Green Passenger Wagon (Sealed Box) Platform and Mini-Figures (Sealed Box) Yellow Box - 70931 (Power Cord) Speed Regulator (w/ Cable) - Pictured Below Light Set - Pictured Below Tracks (Loose, not pictured but all accounted for) Insert, poster, instructions Sin…

I have amassed quite a collection of the Speed Champions series vehicles and think it would be cool to have a transporter to display them on. I have seen a few really nice custom builds, but I was wondering the best auto-transporter set to go for. I really like 6753 and the included cars seems a very close scale to the SC vehicles. If I had the inventory of bricks at home (I bet I have the required inventory at my parents house form childhood) I would love to build a custom model so any suggestions of that would be appreciated. However as I increase my collection of automotive themed (typically racing) Lego & Technic, adding a transporter of some sort would…

i want to invest in some new lego as a financial investment. what do you think the best current sets are to buy and keep boxed as an investment?

So i have the 2007 ultimate collector series and my Box have been water damaged When the place i had the Box was elaking water. I have i have all of the pieces in a big bag and i would like to know if i ahould sell it now or later. Incase i should sell it, for how Much?

Hi, I would like to get the expert knowledge of the BP'er on the random bags in the photos. Lots of grey pieces, no instructions though. First came to mind is Star Wars, or could it be modular - fire brigade? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know how many Deadpool Duck and Vixen mini-figures were handed out at SDCC? I ended up forking over the dough I earned through credit card rewards points to get Deadpool Duck and Vixen (almost as cheap to buy both from the seller I found vs other Ebay prices for Deadpool Duck alone). I am assuming they did not make many and this will not be released in a set. As a fan I am happy to have Deadpool Duck but the price was way higher than I would normally pay. This is my first foray into SDCC. I did buy the NYCC Batgirl Mini Doll but that was much more affordable being around 20 bucks.

How do you guys do the street in front of your modulars? Street plates? or plates and tiles?

Just curious to see if anyone has come across something like this. I picked it up at San Diego Comic-Con a couple of years ago. I was fortunate enough to have it authenticated by a LEGO designer that was at the show. He said that it most likely was produced for a private function. It definitely is not an employee give away. He said that they do not go through the expense of printing colored packaging. Curious to know if anyone else has a similar item or has any information regarding this little fella. Much Thx!

Hi, This is the 2nd motor I bought and it broken exactly in the same place as the first! (pic1) Right of the photo the hole where it's broken - the wheel attachments supposed to go in. (pic2) Shows the other side, still perfect as it should be. Really don't feel like getting another one as they are apparently so fragile. Is this problem known to Lego? How can I fix this? TIA

I just now came across this crazy lego deal. The man tells me it's 200 for everything in the picture. Is this too good to be true? Some of these sets are 200 dollars alone! I appreciate your responses

Hello, I'm new to the site. I was curious if anyone has any idea how to put a value on these two old sets. Both boxes have water damage unfortunately but they're still awesome. Thanks

Hi guys, thanks for taking a second to read this. Short and to the point, any advice you can give for someone looking to buy from Brick Classifieds. There have been a few times that I wanted to pull the trigger on things... almost bought a Taj Mahal for cheap and later realized it was fraud. After noticing that, I almost completely ignore good deals I see on there... but damn, there have been some deals I've wanted to take advantage of! Any advice or wisdom... is there a lot of fraud on there? I hate the internet!

Hi folks, is this altered flag that is meant to represent/symbolize the actual US flag "appropriate", meaning that it does not offend or disrespect anyone aka being "politically correct"? The only other option would be to change red to the top und blue to the bottom - would this be the better alternative?
